Booster 1

Booster 1 was a vending-machine set released on March 1, 1999, as one of the very first sets in the Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game—preceded only by Vol.1 (released the month prior). Like all Series 1 sets, Booster 1 cards used the Series 1 card layout, distinguished from later layouts by the lack of a Card Number beneath the card's artwork and the Eye of Anubis Hologram in its lower-right corner. Like the other Booster sets, Booster 1 was distributed via Carddass vending machines.

Like the other Booster sets, Booster 1 has a tagline associated with it: "The prideful Duel of truth begins now." (「誇り高き真実の決闘デュエルが、今、始まる。」)
